5. Fasten

the

spring-loaded

screws

on

the

front

panel of the

module

to

the

hub

using

your

fingers. Do

 

not

over-tighten.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6. (optional) Press

the

LED

Test

button

on

the Controller

module

to

 

verify

 

that

all

 

LEDs

are

functional.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7. If

you

want

to

 

use

a

 

local

 

console

to

configure

(out-of-band)

the

ATM

subsystem,

you

must

attach

 

an ASCII-type terminal to the RS-232

Console port on the 6416SW

 

module. The

connection

can

 

either be local or via modems.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If

you

use

the

modem

cables

that are delivered with the

ONcore

hub,

you

must a

use

the null modem adapter supplied with the 6416SW

 

module.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Verify

that

the

console and modems (if used) meet

the factory defaults of the

6416SW

module.

If

they

 

are not compatible with the

factory

defaults,

you

will

not

be

able

to

communicate

 

with

 

the

module. The

default

6416SW settings are:

 

 

 

 

9600

baud

rate

No parity

See

Chapter 4, “Setting-Up and Using a Configuration Console” on page 4-1 for

 

 

 

more

information.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8. Attach

one

end

of

an

RS-232

cable

Consoleto

the port,RS-232the

topmost

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RS-232 port on the

front

panel

of

the

6416SW

module.

Loop

the

 

cable

through

 

the

 

hub

cable

tray

 

(if installed) and attach the other

end

to

the

RS-232

serial

port

connector

on

the

 

console

 

or

personal

computer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note:

The

RS-232

 

cable

can

be

a maximum of 200 feet

(61

meters)

in

length.

 

 

 

There

are

several RS-232

cable

configurations

available. Refer

to

Appendix B,

 

 

“RS-232 Cable and

Modem Requirements” on page B-1 for

more

information

on

the

 

 

 

exact

RS-232

cable

that

you

 

need.
